It's still hair month on The Natural Journey For Life. Today I want to talk about what YOU use to nourish your natural coils. The hair care product industry is BOOMING and has been since before the days of Annie Turnbo Malone and Madame CJ Walker. These women created hair care empires that reached the homes of millions of black women who just wanted to feel good about their hair in the early 1900s. I don't care what texture or ethnic background you have. Hair care products are important and most of us will spend LOTS of money to make sure our hair is looking good. I think the Jheri Curl of 1980s fame was the highest grossing hair style ever....all the products needed to keep those curls juiced up could do serious damage to your pocket book!! Millions of dollars were spent on maintaining The Curl.

From the big brands like Tresemme to the niche brands like Mixed Chicks, there is something out there to suit everyone's needs. From shampoo to curling smoothies to reconstructive serums, you can find it. Ever been in a beauty supply store? If you don't know what you are looking for it's easy to get lost in the wide array of products. The survey results definitely support my personal hair care product exploration. Some products use all natural ingredients and some don't. I try to use all natural products as much as possible.

Here's what the lovely ladies that spilled their hair guts use:

1. Entwine
2. Oyin Handmade Products

3. Biolage

4. Shea Moisture

5. Olive Oil Black Jamaican Castor Oil

6. Echo Styler gel

7. Kinky Curly Knot Today

8. Liquefied Raw Black soap

9. Flax seed gel

10. Oils mixed with raw shea butter

11. Aloe vera

12. Apple Cider Vinegar

13. Home made products

Entwine products
